Keshi May be Sacked, Siasia Ready To Take Over by davidugotex(m): 10:59pm On Oct 02, 2014
It is increasingly getting tough for out of contract Super Eagles Coach, Stephen Keshi as he is not likely to be given a new contract by the newly elected NFF executive committee.
A majority of the new NFF leadership does not believe in the coach and even though he will supervise the two AFCON qualifiers against Sudan later this month, he will not be offered a new deal.

Keshi and Siasia
“Most members of the old board under Aminu Maigari have been returned, including Chris Green, who was technical committee chairman, and that can only mean bad news for Keshi,” a top source informed.
“But most importantly even the newly elected executives, the very top officials, do not support Keshi continuing as coach.”
It is believed that Keshi will only be left in charge of the team for the matches against Sudan home and away and thereafter a decision will be taken especially if by then Nigeria have mathematically lost out on qualifying for the Nations Cup in Morocco.
Keshi has become increasingly nervous since after the NFF elections in Warri on Tuesday because he is seriously in danger of losing the plum job now, our source said.
Recently some of his highly-placed backers had put pressure on the NFF secretariat to give the coach a contract, but that could not come through because only the executive committee has the power to appoint a coach.
Keshi’s problems have been further compounded by the renewed interest of former Eagles coach Samson Siasia in the job.
Siasia has publicly said he will be interested in returning to his former post if he is offered the chance again after he was fired three years ago when Nigeria failed to qualify for the 2012 AFCON.
“Keshi took the job from me and if I’m given the job again, I will take it,” he said in a radio interview.
